Scan QR code from image on iPhone

Recent iPhone iPad models allow us directly scan QR codes using the native Camera app. You can find more details from this guide to scan QR codes on iPhone iPad. What about QR codes on images or websites? Is it possible to extract QR codes from images on iPhone?

Currently we can’t find such an utility from the Camera or Photos app on iOS device. In order to scan QR code from images on iPhone, we need a third-party QR code reader. In a relative article, we demonstrated how you can create QR code on iPhone with a free QR code creator. Instead of converting QR code to images on iPhone, this tiny app can also help iOS users convert images to QR codes right on their iPhone or iPad.

Download and launch the QR creator and reader app on iPhone. You will find the Recognizer and Generator from its home interface. Choose Recognizer, you will then find two buttons at the screen bottom. Tap on Choose image, browse to your Camera Roll or photo album on iPhone, select and import the QR code image to the QR code reader app.

Tap on the Scan button at the bottom right corner to start scanning. The scan result will be displayed along with the option to copy it.
